New 2009 Ducati Monster 1100 - More Monster

Ducati has improved its longest-living member , the Monster series underpins the entire profitability of the company. With the new 696 becoming the fastest-selling Monster ever, there was even more reason for Ducati's R&D team headed by Giulio Malagoli to upgrade the original big-bore version of its iconic streetfighter. By slipping basically the same air-cooled 1078cc Desmodue powerplant from the Hypermotard 1100 into the 696's all-new spaceframe chassis, Maligoli and his team created the largest-displacement Monster to ever hit the streets.

With upgraded brakes have less mass to stop, with the Monster 1100 weighing in at a claimed 372.5 pounds dry, more than 17 pounds lighter than the S2R. A good portion of that weight loss is due to the 1078cc engine that-while basically identical in the majority of aspects to the Multistrada/Hypermotard powerplant-is almost seven pounds lighter, thanks to the same Vacural vacuum die-casting technique used on the 848 engine cases that allow greater dimensional accuracy (and thus less material).Brakes and wheels are a definite step up from its S2R predecessor, with lightweight cast aluminum Marchesini wheels fitted as standard equipment. The four-piston Brembo calipers are radially mounted, with a radial-pump master cylinder combining to give a claimed 17 percent increase in braking compared to the 696 using the same size discs and equivalent lever pressure, according to Maligoli.

As on the 696, climbing aboard the new 1100 reveals a relaxed riding position that has you sitting further forward without the S2R's long reach to the ultra-flat handlebar (the 1100 has a tapered aluminum unit versus the cheaper steel handlebar of the 696), and the fuel tank is likewise well-shaped so it's easy to tuck in your knees. The 1100's 40mm-taller seat over the 696 is also raised a further 10mm at the front to accommodate the longer shock's upper mount. This has the effect of preventing you sliding forward all the time as on the 696, which for male riders makes the bike quite a bit more comfy. The Digitek dash is basically the same as the 696; it displays a horde of functions, yet no fuel gauge.

The suspension proved extremely compliant, with the fork eating up bumps on gnarly mountain roads, once the Bridgestone BT-016 tires had warmed up properly-they seem to take longer than the Pirelli Diablos also available as OE fitment, but grip just as well once up to temperature. The Bridgestones also have a sharper profile than the Italian tires, which helps flicking the Monster 1100 from side to side more easily through a testing series of tight turns, aided by the 180-size rear tire that delivers good grip without being wide enough to affect handling. The 1100's 40mm-higher ride height over the 696 results in improved ground clearance for greater lean angles and increased turn speed; you really have to push hard to touch down the footrests.

The Monster 1100's handling is a real step up from the S2R, surely aided not only by the modern rubber but also by positioning the rider's weight further forward to load up the front better. There's less of the flighty front-end feel that afflicted older Monsters when accelerating over bumpy pavement. Like the 696, the Monster 1100's handling is completely intuitive; it's forgiving in the way it lets you make corrections mid-turn, and you can feel the reduced mass when flicking the bike into turns or getting hard on the brakes, made much easier by the new radial setup.

Samsung Launches LED TV In Indian Market

Samsung India has introduced a wide rang of Light Emitting Diodes (LED) technology-based televisions in the Indian market. The new ranges of energy-efficient LED television from Samsung carry a price tag of Rs 1.25 lakh to Rs 3.5 lakh. The company claimed that the new LED TVs consume less electricity and are made of environment-friendly products. Unlike the LCD TVs which use normal liquid crystal display technology, the new ranges of Samsung TVs use light emitting diodes.
The key features are:
1) Picture Clarity: Each of the three Samsung LED HDTV Series feature high dynamic contrast ratios, producing darker blacks and brighter whites for vivid colour ranges. The Ultra Clear Panel also allows light to pass through the screen, thus reducing reflection from ambient light.
All three series also have high refresh rates to reduce ghosting, thus making them ideal for video games too. The 8000 Series boasts of a refresh rate of 200Hz, while the 7000 and 6000 Series reach rates of 100Hz.
2) Slimness: By using Edge LED technology, Samsung has been able to shave the thickness of all three series down to ultra-thin depths of just 1.16 inches.
3) Design: Samsung’s Crystal design begins with a deep piano black bezel that fades into distinct chrome that finishes as a clear prism along the outer edges (8000 Series ) or light ruby highlights (7000 and 6000 Series). The intensity of the colour subtly changes depending upon the viewing angle, and further accentuates these TV’s slim bezels.
4) Connectivity: Samsung’s LED HDTVs can connect to a variety of other devices and play content with ease, through USB 2.0 and HDMI ports. The DLNA Wireless feature in the 7000 and 8000 Series also lets the user seamlessly watch content from the PC without any wires or cables.
5) Pre-loaded Content: The Samsung LED TVs come with a built in Content Library Flash which includes pre loaded content and lets users enjoy all cultural experiences including galleries, Games, cooking to yoga.
6) Eco Friendly: Energy consumption in the Samsung LED TVs is reduced by over 40 per cent as compared to traditional LCD HDTVs of similar size. LED TVs are mercury-free and lead free, which adds another degree of environmental friendliness and safety compared with other currently available backlight technologies.

The Samsung Series 8000 55-inch TV, 55B8000, retails at Rs 3,00,000.
The Series 7000 55B7000 (55 inches) costs Rs 2,75,000; the 46B7000 (46 inches) is available for Rs 1,80,000; and the 40B7000 (40 inches) costs Rs 1,40,000.
The Series 6000 also has three sets, with the 46B6000 (46 inches) retailing at Rs 1,50,000; the 40B6000 (40 inches) coming for Rs 1,25,000; while the 32B6000 (32 inches) will set you back by Rs 69,990.

Sony Launches World's First *1 OLED TV

Sony today introduced the world's first*1 OLED (organic light-emitting diode) TV, "XEL-1". The 11-inch OLED TV "XEL-1" proposes a ground-breaking new TV design, with its astonishing thinness measuring approximately 3mm (at its thinnest point). "XEL-1" also incorporates Sony's independently developed "Organic Panel*2", which realizes advantages such as high contrast, high peak brightness, color reproduction, rapid response time, all of which combine to deliver unparalleled image quality.*1 As of October 1, 2007. Based on Sony research.*2 Name of Sony OLED panel

* Main Features of "XEL-1"
Thinness: Proposes new TV form factor measuring approximately 3mm thinness (at its thinnest point)
High contrast: Reproduces realistic images using exquisite shades of black, and flexible control of color tone and gradation
High peak brightness: Faithfully reproduces picture glow
Excellent color reproduction: Delivers pure and vivid colors in both dark and bright images
Rapid response time: Smoothly reproduces fast-moving images such as sports scenes
Low power consumption
Thinness: Proposes new TV form factor measuring approximately 3mm thinness (at its thinnest point)As OLEDs are light-emitting, there is no need for a separate light source such as a backlight system. Sony's "Organic Panel" consists of an organic material layer of just several hundred nanometers thickness, with two extremely thin glass panels aligned on either side of the organic material layer. This realizes a new TV form factor measuring approximately 3mm at its thinnest point.
High contrast: Reproduces realistic images using exquisite shades of black and flexible control of color tone and gradationWith its light-emitting structure, the OLED display can prevent light emission when reproducing shades of black, enabling "XEL-1" to reproduce very deep blacks (contrast ratio 1,000,000:1). Furthermore, XEL-1 can control all the phases of light emission from zero to peak brightness, generating color expression and subtleties conventional displays cannot match.
High peak brightness: Faithfully reproduces picture glow"Super Top Emission," a technology unique to Sony and incorporated in its "Organic Panel" has a high aperture ratio which allows for efficient light emission from the organic materials, realizing high peak brightness. This enables "XEL-1" to faithfully reproduce light flow such as reflections of sun light or camera flashlights through the image reproduced on the display.
Excellent color reproduction: Delivers pure and vivid colors in both dark and bright imagesIn order to use OLED to generate the full spectrum of Sony's TV color requirements, Sony developed its own proprietary organic materials, with bright coloration. In addition, the micro-cavity structure of "Super Top Emission" and the color extracting technology within its embedded color filter enable "XEL-1" to reproduce natural colors beautifully. As a result, the fresh colors of ripe fruit and shades of deep cobalt blue can be stunningly reproduced. The "Organic Panel" can also sustain its color reproduction capability in scenes of diminished brightness, enabling "XEL-1" to faithfully recreate even dark movie scenes using the colors that were originally intended.
Rapid response time: Smoothly reproduces fast moving images such as sports scenesSince OLED can spontaneously turn the light emitted from the organic material layer on and off, OLED is capable of very rapid response times. Newly developed OLED drive circuits enable "XEL-1" to reproduce fast moving images such as sports scenes smoothly and naturally.
Low power consumptionOLED does not require a separate light source due to its light-emitting structure, therefore it can be powered using very low voltages. This means that OLED TVs consume extremely low levels of power compared with other display devices. The power consumption of "XEL-1" is as low as 45W.

Godrej launches new EON washing machines

Godrej Appliances launches its new EON Washing Machine with DAC Technology. This breakthrough Dynamic Aqua-Power Control (DAC) Technology can sense and adjust to water and power cuts by monitoring the flow of water and power into the washing machine, and set the machine accordingly. If there is a break in water or power, it goes into 'sleep mode'; and when the water and power supply resumes, the wash gets reactivated and continues from where it stopped. For those who aren't too comfortable with leaving the machine on and leave the house, just put the machine on manual mode. When the power or water is available the machine activates itself and starts to give your clothes the whitest wash, if there's a power or water-cut then as mentioned above the machine slips into Sleep mode and restarts when there's water and power. The two machines, GWF 650 PS DAC and GWF 620 FS DAC come in capacities of 6.5 and 6.2 kgs respectively. Both are equipped with a steel drum, five programmes, four water levels, spin free mode, Fuzzy logic technology, child lock and 2-year warranty.

Ford unveils the Figo, new small car for India

One of the world's largest car maker i.e. Ford Motor Company unveiled a new small car at a press conference in Delhi, India on Wednesday. The subcompact, which is called the Figo, will be produced in India for the Indian market, as well as for export to other Asian countries and Africa.

The Figo's launch "signals Ford's intention to compete in India's largest and most important small-car market segment," the Dearborn, Mich.-based automaker said in an announcement.

A little over 1 million passenger cars are sold in India each year, according to Ford spokesman Mark Schirmer. The automaker expects India to become the third largest market for small cars, behind the U.S. and China, by 2030.

India-based Tata Motors and Japan's Suzuki Motors are currently among the country's biggest-selling carmakers.

Ford has invested $500 million in its factory near Chennai, India, to prepare it for high-volume production of the Figo, the automaker said, doubling the plant's capacity to 200,000 units per year.

The Figo was designed and engineered in India, Ford said, but it's based on the existing small-car engineering platform that's already used for the Ford Fiesta.

Ford currently sells a version of the Fiesta in India, as well as three of its other car models. While all of these Ford models would be considered small cars in the U.S., they're each bigger than the Figo, which is about the size of a Honda Fit.

According to Ford, small cars like these makes up about 70% of the Indian car market. "[That's] where the meat of the Indian market is," Ford spokesman Mark Schirmer said.

Tata Motors launches Freelander 2 in India

It can't be easy trying to launch a new model in a country with a 100% import tariff but the job is not made much easier when you look at the other vehicles that are also available in the same market.

For 3,500,000 rupees (around £45,000 or the price of a small flat in Bangalore) you can get the same spec Freelander 2 as sold in the US and EU. But other SUVs are available for less than half that cost from the likes of Hyundai and Toyota.

India is seen as an important market by all motor manufacturers as more traditional local markets continue to contract (and as more strict rules on safety and emissions come online) Hopefully Land Rover, under the expert guidance of the TATA parent company, will be able to take advantage of this.
